Protective Goggle Assembly

Abstract

A protective goggle assembly has a goggle frame having a rigid goggle body formed on a front side. The goggle body has recesses formed on two sides of a lower end so that a resilient face engaging portion is integrally formed with a rear side of the goggle frame. The resilient face engaging portion includes edges on two sides of a lower end, which edges are formed with a curved shape based on a human face contour. When the goggle frame and the lens are assembled with a strap buckled to the two sides for use, and the resilient face engaging portion on the rear side of the goggle frame is in contact with a user's face and cheekbones, the recesses formed on the two sides of the lower end of the rigid goggle body provide the resilient face engaging portion with a larger space for flexible adjustment.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Technical Field[0002]The present invention relates to a protective goggle assembly, and more particularly to a protective goggle assembly in which a goggle frame is combined with a resilient face engaging portion to provide a comfortable fit when the goggle assembly is worn by users having different facial shapes and higher cheekbones, and in which the goggle frame, a lens and a strap can be assembled in a simple and convenient way so as to be stably positioned, and the assembly can be quickly disassembled when not in use.[0003]2. Description of Related Art[0004]The goggle industry has developed protective goggle assemblies of various configurations. A protective goggle assembly generally comprises: an integrally formed goggle frame; a lens shaped corresponding to the goggle frame and installed on a front side thereof; and a strap attached to two sides of the goggle frame and the lens for comfortably fitting on a wearer's head, thereby forming a p...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0005]In view of the problems associated with the use of existing protective goggle assemblies, the present invention provides an improved protective goggle assembly in which a goggle frame with a resilient face engaging portion combined therewith can provide a comfortable fit when worn by users having different facial shapes and higher cheekbones, and in which the goggle frame, a lens and a strap can be assembled in a simple and convenient way so as to be stably positioned, and the assembly can be quickly disassembled when not in use.

[0006]A primary objective of the present invention is to provide a protective goggle assembly wherein a goggle frame with a lens installed therein has an integrally formed, rigid goggle body on a front side of the goggle frame. The goggle body is formed with recesses on two sides of a lower end thereof, so that a resilient face engaging portion is integrally formed with a rear side of the goggle frame. The resilient face engaging portion includes edges located on two sides of a lower end thereof which edges are formed with a curved shape based on a human face contour. Therefore, when the goggle frame and the lens are assembled with a strap buckled to the two sides thereof for use, and the resilient face engaging portion on the rear side of the goggle frame is in contact with the face and cheekbones of a user, the recesses formed on the two sides of the lower end of the rigid goggle body provide the resilient face engaging portion with a larger space for flexible adjustment, so as to offer a comfortable fit for users having different facial shapes or higher cheekbones.

[0007]A second objective of the present invention is to provide a protective goggle assembly in which a rigid goggle body provided on a front side of a goggle frame has: an engaging portion which is located at a middle section of an upper side of the goggle body and includes a groove opening outwards; and a concave section which is located at a middle section of a lower side of the goggle body and is provided with a vertical through hole located adjacent to the concave section. An integrally formed lens has a connecting portion which is located at a middle section of an upper side of the lens and can fit into the groove of the goggle body; and a downwardly extending protrusion which is located at a middle section of a lower side of the lens and can be inserted into the vertical through hole on the goggle body. In addition, the goggle body further includes a designed through hole on each of two sides thereof with raised portions protruding outwards from a periphery of the designed through hole; and a tenon located on a side of each of the designed through holes. The lens further includes a designed through hole on each of two sides thereof corresponding to the respective designed through holes on the goggle body; and an aperture located on a side of each of the designed through holes on the lens for receiving the corresponding tenon. A strap is combined with a buckle at each of two ends thereof. Each of the buckles has an engaging section extending from a side thereof, wherein the engaging section forms a boundary portion at an end thereof for sequentially penetrating the respective designed through holes of the lens and the goggle body. When the two buckles are rotated, the boundary portions of the respective engaging sections press stably against an inner surface of the two designed through holes of the goggle body. Therefore, the goggle frame, the lens and the strap can be assembled in a simple and convenient way so as to be stably positioned, and the assembly can be quickly disassembled when not in use. A third objective of the present invention is to provide a protective goggle assembly in which a resilient face engaging portion integrally formed with and located adjacent to a side of a rigid goggle body of a goggle frame includes a plurality of air vents on two sides of a lower end of the face engaging portion, so that the protective goggle assembly allows good ventilation when in use.

Problems solved by technology

While such protective goggle assembly serves the intended protective function, it is not comfortable to the face when worn by someone having a wider face or higher cheekbones as the resilient face engaging portion 18 is excessively pressed towards the rigid goggle body 12.

Furthermore, the disassembling of the strap is an inconvenient operation.
